He's losing all lawsuits, he's ignoring the results.

While it is true that courts don't really stop him. This still shows that not everyone bends the knee to him. It shows that he doesn't have complete total support. And, most importantly, there are some politicians that do have a spine. Even if their intentions are misplaced or malicious, I'll take anything to stop Trump. Can't comply in advance.
In reality, NCAA President Charlie Baker recently testified that fewer than 10 transgender athletes are currently participating among the 510,000 student-athletes in NCAA programs.
This is the context that republicans completely ignore. .002% of college athletes are trans. That’s barely even a rounding error.
My dad was going off about trans kids in sports so I asked him....is this really how you want your tax dollars spent? Fightings to keep a handful of kids from playing college sports?
"Yeah, well I, uh, it's just not fair to the other athletes!"
That's an excellent way to confront that issue! Americans might not be able to interact with empathy or sympathy but we cannot stand feeling dumb😂
Watch out, some just double-down when they feel dumb.
There's a reason that movement is so anti-intellectual and don't care for facts.
I love my dad but I don't engage with him seriously about politics anymore. Specific facts don't matter, he only cares about "the big picture"....so instead of of arguing, I give him the even bigger picture: none of this shit matters. It's all a distraction while they rob us blind.
The important part is that people in a democracy have to be held responsible. If and when the fascists of this world are finally taken down, we need to make the people pay who put them in power.
Not sure my dad will be around long enough to feel any real consequences
You can let him feel them now. Join the counter movement and learn how to help rid the world from fascism through talking, protesting, writing. Those are the weapons of a democracy.
I’m sure your dad was really concerned about fairness in women’s athletics before the culture wars arrived, right?
Such a disingenuous stance from so many people that I’d bet would have a hard time naming five female athletes.
In order to be a Republican, you kind of have to be a walking contradiction
In particular, if it's 10 kids, you can absolutely look at each individual kid and find out 1) are they actually even good at sports? and 2) what's their motivation for sport?
I would bet money that all ten of them are mediocre and really just want to live their lives like a normal kid.
I don't think people here understand this yet: he doesn't care. He won't abide by any court rulings and there's no one to make him do it. Your system was always broken, and your rights are just a gentleman's agreement. Now you ran out of gentlemen.
My 6th grade teacher included the judiciary's lack of ability to enforce their rulings as part of our lesson on checks and balances. That feels like foreshadowing now.
Yeah, in spite of Trump literally being a felon while also being president, people still can't shake the idea that he's somehow forced to follow the law. He's actively ignoring a bunch of judicial orders, but people keep celebrating whenever another is added to the pile. We're simply unable to understand that when Trump - or any rich person for that matter - gets a sentence that "makes them" do something, they can just... not. And nothing bad will happen to them.
Has he paid any of the money he was supposed for the slander/libel/ breaking new York laws or whatever? Or has it just been reduced to nothing.
I'm not sure, but I'd be surprised if he didn't use his power as president to dodge it somehow. Or he just ignored it - who's going to actually come after him over it anyway?
Yeah but that's not exclusive to our system, that's society in general.
Boss lady puts diaper baby to bed lol
Must be nice to have a governor who cares that kids get to eat.
Tell me about it... - Indiana
meanwhile in Florida
Any time the Orange Turd loses the world is a better place.
not really, because he just ignores them. Who's gonna stop him? Us?
Janet Mills and the Judge will soon be accused of being MS13 and sent to El Salvador. Let's see her tattoos.
Ms paint goes brrrrr
what a toxic piece of shit, cutting school meal funding because he did not get his way.
Judges are going to like him less and less as he keeps denying them.
the real question is when the marshall service starts doing their actual job
The US Marshals are under control of the Executive Branch.
The US Marshals are not friendly or beholden to the courts.
US Judges have the authority to deputize as they need to see judicial orders carried out. The Supreme Court has its own - the Marshal of the Supreme Court.
The US Marshals are basically security escorts for high risk assets, they won't be making arrests anytime soon.
I give it about 24 months. He'll get comfortable and make some stupid decision that ruins the money of some rich group and they'll oust him. It sucks for everyone, but they're too dumb not to eat themselves.
Wouldn't get to smug about it yet, poor woman will probably be in a reform camp by the end of the year.
I remember Trump saying it should be easy to win this case. 😂
Yup. He said he basically said "Good, I look forward to it. It'll be an easy win."
